Requirement Discovery

This skill turns a rough user goal into the first product-development contract. The user only needs to provide a rough goal, corrections, and confirmations.

The agent must draft information architecture, draft interaction structure, draft state requirements, draft API/data assumptions, and draft acceptance boundaries. Do not ask the user to provide IA, interaction matrices, state matrices, API contracts, or acceptance criteria from scratch.

Entry Rule

For one-line site or design requests, start here. Examples:

• "I want a high-end coffee brand website, make the front-end design draft first, do not develop."
• "Create a SaaS landing page design."
• "I need an admin dashboard concept."

Do not offer a browser visual companion, open a local URL, start Pencil/Figma, or run a creative-only brainstorming flow before this skill has produced the fixed requirement workspace through generate_requirement_workspace. If brainstorming is useful, capture the idea as AI Assumptions inside the requirement discovery artifact, then ask at most three focused confirmation questions.

Input Artifacts

• User rough request
• Existing project context when available
• Prior change record when this is a resumed or changed feature

Output Artifact

• docs/full-stack-development/requirements/<feature-slug>/01-intake/requirement-discovery.md

Required MCP Tool

• generate_requirement_workspace
• review_artifact_contract
• review_stage_gate

Hard Stops

• Do not let brainstorming replace requirement discovery for product, website, landing page, brand site, or design-draft requests.
• Do not offer browser visual companion or local URL preview before generate_requirement_workspace.
• Do not enter Pencil/Figma.
• Do not write implementation code.
• Do not ask more than at most three focused questions before drafting assumptions.
• Do not treat a chat summary as a project artifact.

Pressure Test Responsibility

• rough-admin-one-line must produce a usable draft.
• over-clarification must block when the agent asks too many questions without a draft.
• empty-requirement-discovery must block.

Next Gate

• Product scope may proceed only after review_artifact_contract passes for requirement discovery.
